OnePlus 5T vs OnePlus 5: Worth the upgrade?

To start, the OTA should be available starting today. Those who don’t get a notification may be able to grab it by checking for updates manually. Some community members have already begun receiving the update, so that’s good news. Otherwise, you may have to wait a day or two until it rolls out to your advice. However, the update is being accompanied by OxygenOS 5.0. That’s going to bring its own set of changes:

OnePlus’ Parallel apps feature is now included. It lets you clone apps for use with multiple accounts.

Picture-in-picture is now available, obviously.

Auto-fill, Smart Text Selection, and other Android Oreo features are available.

The security patch is updated to September.

New Quick Settings design, notification dots, and a new app folder design make an appearance.

Users can now upload photos directly to Shot.

According to OnePlus, the update also includes some optimizations and fixes to answer some feedback from the community. About the only other caveat is that people must be on the latest update in order to get the Android O and OxygenOS 5.0 update. That’s no big deal. Most people should be on the latest software already.
